    I'm trying to download a torrent through Download Direct, but the torrent contains a few files and I only want one of them. I've looked in the help file and in the FAQs, but I can't find anything helpful. Has anyone tried this and knows how to only download one file from a torrent?

    I know this doesn't address your particular problem, but why use DownloadDirect? It isn't freeware, and obviously you're having trouble with it. Try either uTorrent http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4818.html which is my personal favorite torrent client, or use FlashGet http://www.majorgeeks.com/FlashGet_d461.html which is also free and looks like it's very similar to DownloadDirect. Check these out....

    The only reason I was using it was because it claimed to be a download accelerator. I normally use bitComet, but it stopped working so I switched to bitTorrent which was really slow and ate up all my bandwidth. And, turns out the port forwarding wasn't working right.

    I tried uTorrent, fixed the forwarding issue, and it works fine now. Thanks!
